Abstract:
The invention relates to compounds of formula (I): in which R1, R2, L1, X, R3, A, R4, R4′, R4″, R4″′, R5, Y and L2 are as herein defined, salts and prodrugs thereof, to their use as protein kinase inhibitors, and to methods of treating diseases comprising adminstration thereof.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to acylated indanyl amines according to the general formula (I) wherein R1—R4 have the meanings given in the description, A is CH2, CHOH or CH—(C1-C3-alkyl), B is CH2 or CH—(C1-C3-alkyl), and R5 is an aryl or heteroaryl group, possibly substituted by the substituents listed in the description. These compounds are useful in the upregulation of endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS), and may therefore be useful for the manufacture of medicaments for the treatment of cardiovascular diseases, stable or unstable angina pectoris, coronary heart disease, Prinzmetal angina, acute coronary syndrome, heart failure, myocardial infarction, stroke, thrombosis, peripheral artery occlusive disease, endothelial dysfunction, atherosclerosis, restenosis, endothelial damage after PTCA, hypertension, essential hypertension, pulmonary hypertension, secondary hypertension, renovascular hypertension, chronic glomerulonephritis, erectile dysfunction, ventricular arrhythmia, diabetes or diabetes complications, nephropathy or retinopathy, angiogenesis, asthma bronchiale, chronic renal failure, cirrhosis of the liver, osteoporosis, restricted memory performance, a restricted ability to learn, or for the lowering of cardiovascular risk of postmenopausal women or after intake of contraceptives.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to derivatives of imidazo[2,1-b]thiazoles of formula I, in which R, R1 to R3 and n have the meanings indicated in the claims, which modulate the transcription of endothelial nitric oxide (NO) synthase and are valuable pharmacologically active compounds. Specifically, the compounds of formula I upregulate the expression of the enzyme endothelial NO synthase and can be applied in conditions in which an increased expression of said enzyme or an increased NO level or the normalization of a decreased NO level is desired. The invention further relates to processes for the preparation of compounds of formula I, to pharmaceutical compositions comprising them, and to the use of compounds of formula I for the manufacture of a medicament for the stimulation of the expression of endothelial NO synthase or for the treatment of various diseases including cardiovascular disorders such as atherosclerosis, thrombosis, coronary artery disease, hypertension and cardiac insufficiency, for example.
Abstract:
The disclosure relates to compounds of formula (I): wherein Ra, Rb, R, and n are as defined in the disclosure, to pharmaceutical compositions comprising said compounds, and to processes for making and methods of using the same.
Abstract:
The invention relates to methods for detecting a soluble guanylate cyclase whose heme iron is in the trivalent oxidation state, and to methods for finding chemical substances which stimulate the activity of a soluble guanylate cyclase when the heme iron of at least part of this soluble guanylate cyclase is oxidized to the trivalent state and also to diagnostic aids or kits for detecting a soluble guanylate cyclase with trivalent heme iron. Further, the invention relates methods for detecting a soluble guanylate cyclase lacking a heme group, and to methods for finding chemical substances which stimulate the activity of a soluble guanylate cyclase lacking a heme group.

Abstract:
The present invention relates to pyrazole derivatives of the formula I, their preparation and their use in pharmaceuticals: in which X, R1, R1a, R2, R3, R4 and n are as defined in the claims, which are useful pharmaceutically active compounds for the therapy and prophylaxis of illnesses, for example of cardiovascular diseases such as hypertension, angina pectoris, cardiac insufficiency, thromboses or atherosclerosis. The compounds of the formula I are capable of modulating the body's production of cyclic guanosine monophosphate “cGMP” and are generally suitable for the therapy and prophylaxis of illnesses which are associated with a disturbed cGMP balance. The invention furthermore relates to processes for preparing compounds of the formula I, to their use for the therapy and prophylaxis of the abovementioned illnesses and for preparing pharmaceuticals for this purpose, and also to pharmaceutical preparations which comprise the compounds of the formula I.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to compounds according to the general formula (I), wherein R1-R4 have the meanings given in the description, A is CH2, CHOH or CH—(C1-C3-alkyl), B, C and D are independently CH2 or CH—(C1-C3-alkyl), and R5 is an aryl or heteroaryl group, possibly substituted by the substituents listed in the description. These compounds are useful for the manufacture of medicaments for the treatment of cardiovascular diseases, stable or unstable angina pectoris, coronary heart disease, Prinzmetal angina, acute coronary syndrome, heart failure, myocardial infarction, stroke, thrombosis, peripheral artery occlusive disease, endothelial dysfunction, atherosclerosis, restenosis, endothelial damage after PTCA, hypertension, essential hypertension, pulmonary hypertension, secondary hypertension, renovascular hypertension, chronic glomerulonephritis, erectile dysfunction, ventricular arrhythmia, diabetes, diabetes complications, nephropathy, retinopathy, angiogenesis, asthma bronchiale, chronic renal failure, cirrhosis of the liver, osteoporosis, or restricted memory performance or for a restricted ability to learn, or the lowering of cardiovascular risk of postmenopausal women or after intake of contraceptives.
